Startup help

87 Iroc Z 305 tpi. When the car is cold, it will start right up...but when the car is warm, it takes a few revolutions to start and it is helped by keeping the gas pedal on the floor when I am turning it over which makes no sense b/c it is fuel injected. Anyone had this problem before????

I haven't checked the pressure but I am working on a gauge on the shraeder valve to check it. The service engine soon light hasn't been on but I checked the car on the scanner anyway and codes were clear. It fires up like it is supposed to when it is cold. I was thinking it was the cold start injector and it would fire everytime I was starting...any way to diagnose this.
